Planetary Ball Mill pm 400
In the demanding world of advanced materials research, sample preparation is not just a step—it’s the foundation of discovery. For laboratories that require ultimate grinding fineness, maximum throughput, and uncompromising reproducibility, the DECO Planetary Ball Mill PM 400 stands as the industry benchmark. This high-performance mill is engineered to meet the rigorous needs of R&D and quality control across diverse sectors.
Description
Unmatched Performance: The Engine of Innovation
The DECO-PM 400 delivers exceptional performance through its sophisticated design and robust engineering:
High Energy & Rapid Size Reduction: Its unique planetary motion, with grinding jars rotating around a central sun wheel, generates formidable centrifugal forces. This results in extremely high pulverization energy, allowing for the rapid grinding of even the hardest materials to analytical fineness (< 1 µm).
Exceptional Versatility: It is a true all-rounder. The PM 400 performs dry, wet, and cryogenic grinding, as well as mechanical alloying and colloidal milling. Its compatibility with grinding jars from 12 ml to 500 ml makes it suitable for both minute precious samples and production-sized batches.
Guaranteed Reproducibility: Precise digital control of all process parameters-speed, time, and grinding jar configuration-ensures that every run is perfectly repeatable. This is critical for publishing verifiable research and maintaining strict quality control standards.
